All Saints Church, Scholar Green[edit]
.jpg)
... that All Saints Church, Scholar Green, in Cheshire (pictured) was commissioned by Randle Wilbraham III of Rode Hall, but he died during its construction, and the church was completed and paid for by his son?

New article, longer than our minimum criteria, well written, no copyrights problems apparent, hook is verified, (thanks for guiding towards it), image is good for use. QPQ is done. However; neither Randle Wilbraham III nor his son are blue linked and they might not be notable for WP. But then do we have something to describe them in the hook? Simply writing their names is just like Shopkeeper 1 and Shopkeeper 2 of films. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 13:47, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
- Because there are no articles (yet) does not mean that the Randle Wilbrahams were not notable. But that is not the point; it is the subject of the article that has to be notable - and it is. As it happens, the Wilbraham family were an important Cheshire family who built and lived in a notable country house (which I have added to the hook). I just thought that there was sufficient interest for a hook in the fact that the founder of a church died before it was completed, and his son had to pay for it (and I have seen lots of hooks that were less "interesting"). Is all that sufficient for a tick? --Peter I. Vardy (talk) 16:25, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
- I used might. I did not object on the notability of article and if i had doubts on that we would be at AfD by now. As whatever happens was not really clear in the hook and will still not be until readers see your explanation here. I have not complained about the interestingness of the hook but just its absurdity to mention two people who seem unimportant and trivial. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 18:02, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
- And I rather thought that the quirky name (for these days in UK) was rather in the fun spirit of DYK. OK will this do?
